ABSTRACT:
A carrier assembly comprises a housing having an aperture formed substantially centrally thereon for accepting a splined tilt rod. The tilt rod interconnects a plurality of carrier assemblies which form a vertical blind assembly. The splined tilt rod permits uniform rotation of a linear gear member contained within the carrier assembly to interact with a gear-headed slat support which may be removably connected to the housing. The interaction permits a slat depending from each of the plurality of carrier assemblies of the vertical blind assembly to rotate synchronously. Additionally, the gear-headed slat support is provided with a flush mounted stopping member for engaging the terminus of either end of the linear gear member to prevent skipping of the slats when said slats are fully opened or fully closed.
